Forums - Microsoft Discussion - MS hiring for 'next-gen AAA' game 'similar to Horizon Zero Dawn'

I mean... it's not like it was never said that Microsoft was the me too company.



Around the Network

Horizon was a huge project for Guerilla Games, IIRC they were working on it for many years.
If they start with the development now we can expect a release for the next Xbox console.



Minecraft 2: Horizon Mode



tbh Horizon is just Crysis with a bunch of robot dinosaurs.

Next gen? So I guess the next Xbox is under development already? I don't know why he would say next gen for Xbox One, this gen is already 4 years (basically) in. Unless he considers the Xbox One X next gen? Or maybe I'm making too much out of his use of the words "next gen"

Xbox One X. This was posted before the E3 show and Phill said they don't have another xbox in development and if they did it's too early for devs to have a developer kit so he's talking about Xbox One X.

I hope it just means an Xbox One X compatible title, because I'm not ready for another console by Microsoft!

Wow that's a good depiction of the game. I've never actually heard someone describe it like that before.

I always thought it was killzone, and far cry in third person with inspiration from uncharted and Jurassic park. Interesting. 



Does Microsoft have a engine like Decima capable enough to do this? or are they going to make a new one for this game?

One of the reasons Horizon Zero Dawn looks so good, is because of how crazy advanced this new game engine is.

Its "ahead" of the game so to speak.

Do you guys think MS will make a new engine? or try to get Horizon Zero Dawn graphics able to run on Xbox One S  (weaker than a normal PS4) on a old engine?

What a terrible description. They aren't even in the same genre or even played from the same perspective.
